Hi,
we have a cyrus IMAP platform. We use the dot ('.') as the folder separator.
We use a webmail of ours to access the cyrus platform and we are going to
add a new functionality : let the users create their own folders.
So of course we must encode the folder names they submit before doing the
creation.
The trouble is : if the name contains the character '.', it is not encoded
by our algorythm of UTF7 modified encoding, and as it is the character used
for folder separation, it is considered as thus.
We thought of encoding it our way, but the IMAP platform may be accessed by
clients such as Outlook Express , which would be unlikely to understand our
particular encoding.
Does anybody have an idea of how we could encode this character in a UTF7
modified compliant manner ?
